According to N Phuan Ong and colleagues at Princeton University , the observation of “spin-charge separation” in a material known as a quantum spin liquid suggests that the electron is not a structureless “point” particle as is commonly thought, but instead behaves like it contains two separate entities. The holon and the spinon.

BECs (ultracold gases of trapped atoms all cooled to the quantum ground state of the trap) of highly magnetic atoms can spontaneously form regular, ordered clusters in an applied magnetic field, showing the emergence of supersolidity from a completely isotropic superfluid state. That’s the theory. From one dimension to two.
